The long-delayed Babumoshai Bandookbaaz faces more turbulence with lead actress Chitrangda Singh walking out, uncomfortable doing a sex scene with Nawazuddin Siddiqui the way director Kushan Nandy wanted.
Babumoshai Bandookbaaz, a comic thriller is being directed by Kushan Nandy, son of journalist Pritish Nandy. Though the movie kicked off in 2014, the work halted due to various issues including financial constraints.

The scene required Nawazuddin Siddiqui pushing Chitrangda Singh on the bed and then both of them engaging in the act. Kushan Nandy was not happy with the first take and wanted Chitrangda Singh to be more involved
Spot Boye reports, quoting sources, reports that he barked at Chitrangda Singh asking her to 'Get on top of Nawaz, …Tange ragdo… sex karo."
The actress was not comfortable following his diktat. She also objected to the way he had spoken to her before the crew and a row broke out between the two which ended with the actress packing up and leaving for Mumbai.
SpotBoye also quoted a source close to Kushan, who disputed Chitrangda Singh’s version of the incident. He said the film was suffering as Chitrangda Singh was not performing well. She allegedly showed bad attitude, demanded changes in script and was reporting late on the sets. So, she was asked to leave.
